Twice A Day Nurse Visits     1-6-2020

Sara popped in to sit with her Grandma for a couple of hours so that my sister and I could make a trip to Ashland together. We had some things we needed to discuss and a few errands to do in that town, so she rode with me. There are just so many things to figure out!  We are talking about how to go about closing down Mom's cute little apartment, selling/giving away her belongings and getting things wrapped up there. We didn't want to discuss that in front of her. I don't know how much she still comprehends (it seems to fluctuate) so we had a good discussion.

Ethan and Grandma
There are a few times when Mom can focus and center in - like she did here with Ethan. It's fun to see glimpses of her. She focused right in on his face and told him how she loves him and how handsome she thinks  he is! Then a few minutes later, she sort of checks out and withdraws again. We treasure these moments when we see that sparkle in her eyes. 

Another Hospice Nurse stopped by while I was out running errands. I didn't know anyone was coming today! After checking Mom, they have decided she has physically moved to another level of Hospice care and we will be getting nurse visits TWICE A DAY now! I need to contact them and ask if they would mind running out some Depends and water-proof pads. Seems that we need them now. The changes are just happening so fast!

Thanks for following along Mom's journey with my sister and me. There is a certain amount of comfort knowing all of you are out there praying for her and sending good thoughts for peace and happy moments.

Until tomorrow...
